Trivia[]

One of the samples used is Shigesato Itoi saying "Ok desu ka?". Hirokazu Tanaka, one of the main composers of the game, tricked him into saying it after he hid a tape recorder. This sample was used again in the Mother 3 naming menu.
The beginning of Your Name, Please features a sample taken from John Phillip Sousa's "Liberty Bell March", best known as the theme song of Monty Python's Flying Circus.
Franky is heavily based on the song "Johnny B. Goode" by Chuck Berry.
The Place samples the beginning of the song "Deirdre" by The Beach Boys, pitched and slowed down.
Sky Runner bears a striking resemblance to the song Won't Get Fooled Again by the Who.
